Polly's Pumpkin Patch Blocks 7 & 8

Polly's Pumpkin Patch Blocks 7 & 8

I'm so excited about Polly's Pumpkin Patch Sew Along. This quilt block collection features all the fun of a breezy fall day visit to a country pumpkin patch. Each appliqué block will reveal a bit more about the farm. There are lots of happy sunflowers and pumpkins, whimsical farm scenes and a few critter friends along the way... and not to be forgotten, Miss Polly! 

Polly's Pumpkin Patch is part of my free monthly block pattern give-away. This sew along began in August. Previous blog posts will show you past blocks. I do hope you will join in on this fun sew-along! To learn more about this collection, fabric requirements for the full quilt, block release schedule and how to get free patterns, please read the Polly's Pumpkin Patch - Start Here" Blog.  ➡️HERE

This is the final two blocks so lets continue exploring the patch... 

#7 Pumpkin Head

This hardworking scarecrow only appears during pumpkin season. Everyone loves Pumpkin Head!

Stitching Tips

  • Embellish the clothing as you wish. I did some extra stitching around the pocket on the overalls. Have fun with this!
  • Can't find a fabric that looks like a feather? Make your own feather by using permanent markers to draw a center line and some feather markings. Make sure to heat set with a hot dry iron. 

#8 Friendship Bench

This bench is the perfect place to end our time at the patch. Let's sit awhile and watch squirrel as he gathers acorns. 

Stitching Tips

  • This little pillow is a great place to show your creativity.I added the stitching around the edge of the pillow. Follow the pattern or do your own thing. Add your own words. Embellish as you choose!
